Stadium

Turkey / Izmir / Selcuk /
 ruins, interesting place

The large stadium or hippodrome was originally built in the 3rd century BC and even received a major rebuilding in the 4th century. When Ephesus was mostly abandoned in the 7th century, much of the stadium was dismantled and its stone added to the fortifications on Ayasuluk hill. There is still a well-preserved monumental gate on the west side.
